Fake home / vehicle warranty expiration scam
fake-home-warranty-expiration-scam
What this tier means
High-confidence threat indicator — phishing, impersonation, BEC, or scam pattern. Strong contributor to the trash decision.
How Gorganizer detects this
Email claiming the recipient's home warranty, appliance coverage, or vehicle service contract is expiring or has already expired — urging an immediate paid renewal or extended coverage plan using fabricated "final notice" language, scare tactics about costly repairs, and high-pressure phone numbers. Recipients often have no warranty at all; the sender has no knowledge of actual coverage. FTC 2024: extended warranty and service contract scams generate 300,000+ complaints per year and have been in the top 10 consumer fraud categories for four consecutive years.
False-positive guard
Every signal in Gorganizer feeds a multi-module score — never a sole verdict. This is a threat-tier signal — it adds a strong contribution to the trash score. The full pipeline still requires convergence across multiple modules + a margin over the safety floor before deletion happens, and Gmail's trash (30-day recovery) is always used — never permanent delete.
About the scoring engine
Gorganizer's scoring engine emits 2,143+ signals across six modules — headers, sender, subject, body, attachments, and structural metadata. Every email is scored by every module independently; the final verdict requires multiple modules to agree and the trash score to beat the safety floor by a margin.
Sacred safety guards — never delete starred emails, replies, calendar invites, receipts/invoices, or attachments — apply unconditionally regardless of any signal.
